William Shakespeare William Shakespeare was born in April 1564 and died in April 1616. At the age of 18, he married Anne Hathaway, with whom he had three children: Susanna, and twins Hamnet and Judith. Between 1585 and 1592, he began a successful career in London as an actor and writer. He wrote 38 plays and also many poems in his lifetime. He lived in Stratford-upon-Avon, in Warwickshire, England. His plays are of different kinds, or genres. There are histories, tragedies and comedies. He was involved in the building of the Globe Theatre in 1599. It was destroyed by fire on 1613. A second Globe Theatre was built in the same place in June 1614 and closed in 1642. A modern reconstruction of the Globe, called "Shakespeare's Globe", opened in 1997 close to where the original theatre was. Shakespeare stopped writing in 1613, 3 years before his death in 1616. Maybe this was because many theatres were often closed due to the plague. Shakespeare’s plays are some of the best in English literature and are studied in schools around the world. They are still performed today.

twins = two babies who are born at the same time tragedy = a play with an unhappy ending reconstruction = building again the plague = a disease
